NY May 11 57th Street

The boss had to pop into the Nike Shop on 57th Street to pick up some stuff for his kids so I toddled along with him so that we can discuss stuff. But he disappeared to get some more stuff so I wandered outside the store for a few minutes and took these photographs.

Bright lamps, but why are they still alight? Its 4 PM in the afternoon!!!

A lovely building. I somehow prefer the tops of these skyscrapers than any other part, that's where their individuality shows through :)

Photobucket

Thin but tall one, with one of my favourite watch makers at the base.

Photobucket

Serrated top of this building. With statues of a bird on this one.

Photobucket

A plain and simple building. Looks a bit like the UN one. When compared to the one next to it, its stark.

Photobucket

Looks like this is a posh street. LV shop.

Once upon a time, the Greenwich Savings Bank Incorporated was here. How amusing, when I read up on it, looks like its now part of the HSBC firm now. How ironic and coincidental that I am taking a pic of it.

Tourists on the way

A tourist like me taking a pic.

Fascinating top of the building, with a military decoration?

Queuing up to take the bus

Is that an Egyptian Obelix on top? What on earth?
